BREAKING: WGAE members at Vox Media reached a tentative agreement with management on a new three-year collective bargaining agreement! The 250-member unit will vote to ratify the contract in the coming days. As a deal has now been reached, there will not be any pickets.

It is ridiculous that @voxmedia continues to ignore its editorial workers, who stand united in our demand for #OneUnionOneContract. Love and solidarity to our colleagues at @thedodounion/@thrillistunion today. Don't cross the virtual picket line.
Members of our union and @thrillistunion are on strike today! Show solidarity by refusing to cross the digital picket line — forgo your animal and travel content today! ✊❤️

For months, hundreds of Vox Union, @thrillistunion and @thedodounion have demanded #OneUnionOneContract. Please send a letter to @voxmedia management urging the company to recognize the will of their employees and voluntarily agree to this merger! actionnetwork.org/letters/on…

To help blunt the impact of today's layoffs, we're raising money for folks across Vox Media who lost their jobs today. Please donate some cash if you're able, and share this link. gofundme.com/f/vox-media-uni…

Today, we stand in solidarity with our @WGAEast colleagues to demand that @voxmedia, and all media companies, publicly commit to never replacing human workers with AI tools. #JournalismNeedsHumans

We did it. We have a tentative deal. Over the coming days, we'll discuss and vote on it, together, as a democratic union. But today, I want to thank every single WGA member, and every fellow worker who stood with us in solidarity. You made this possible. Thank you. #WGAStrong

Congratulations to the VICE News Tonight team! Shame on management, who are dampening this celebration by withholding many laid off employees’ severance pay. Shame.
27 Jul 2023
A HUGE congratulations to everyone who worked on VICE News Tonight and its epic 28 Emmy nominations. An equally huge WTF to management, which gutted VNT with mass layoffs months ago and still hasn’t paid the majority their severance.

It’s bad that Sony bought Bluepoint games. It’s bad that Microsoft bought Bethesda. It’s bad that Sony bought Nixxes. It’s bad that Microsoft bought Activision. It’s bad that Sony bought Housemarque. It’s bad that Microsoft bought Ninja Theory.

A great piece by @SuperAntonio64! Jsaux is a great brand! It struck while the iron was hot on Steam Deck accessories really paid off (and it’s some of the best third-party accessories for the device rn!) theverge.com/23769329/jsaux-…

If you’re a Steam Deck fan, you may be familiar with the accessory maker Jsaux. It seemed to come out of nowhere and suddenly made just about everything for Valve’s handheld. So I interviewed them, and wrote about how it made its mark and what’s next theverge.com/23769329/jsaux-…

We didn’t even know how to pronounce the name Jsaux (it’s JAY-saw btw), but this alphabet-soup brand on Amazon managed to beat Valve to market with a docking station for the Deck. It proved very successful, and then kept iterating from there. Now, it wants to be the next Anker

Big thanks to @StarFire2258 for all his help and support with this. This piece started with us just nerding out about our Steam Decks and wondering, “hey, what’s up with this Jsaux stuff that’s suddenly everywhere?”
